to order said it was an adjourned meeting
called for the purpose of examining
charges, il any were flied, against Chief Sui

ored to get witnesses to prove the accusa-
tons that had been made, but was unable
to secure them. He had two affidavits,
but the parties making them were not resi-
dents of the city and he had been unable
to see them. He had received anonymous
communications making charges and so
far as he had been able to investigate those
he found nothing in them. Mr. Grace of
Folsom, who had made affidavit that he
had received only 5000 for horse when the
city had been charged $3.50, had been tele-
graphed to- Yesterday an answer came back
from his wife stating that Grace had left
for Placerville on Monday
There being no charges on file against
Mr.. Sullivan the matter was continued
until 7:30 P. NJ, the 18th, when, Mr.. Hart
said, if those people who have been so
anxious to present charges did not come
forward, he would ask the Board to take
no further notice of them.
The matter of examining into the
charges of disorderly conduct made against
Richard Corsaw were in the " same boat"
No one wished to father them, and so they
were not presented in writing. They We're
also continued to the same date.
Chief Sullivan was present, as was also

At the request Of the Governor the money
in the vaults of the State Treasury was
counted yesterday. The entire Board of
Examiners was present, as was also their
Secretary, S. p. Maslin, and the Governor
Private Secretary Mr.. Boruck. They were
assisted by State Treasurer Adam Herold,
his Deputy, l. Danielwitz, and the deputies
in the Office. The count commenced at 10
A. NJ, and was concluded at 2:15 P. NJ,
when over 81 100000 was counted. The
money was all there, and 81 IS in excess,
the latter the result of making
change. The Governors Private Secretary,
Marcus D. Boruck, suggested that as this
was practically a new administration, at
least so far as the Governor was concerned,
it was but right and just that the seals OF
all the sacks be broken and the money
counted, He had not the slightest doubt
but that all the money, every cent belong
ing to the State, was there; but, as matter
of protection to the Governor, this course
should be pursued so long as the Governor
was called upon to certify to the correct
ness of the same. This request was cheer
fully acquiesced in, the bags all opened
counted and resealed, as were the packages
of currency, with the result as above stated
When the count was completed. at the
invitation of Governor Waterman, all
dined at the French restaurant.

Matrimonial Speculations.

"a school-marm never gets married in
Sacramento-once a school-marm, an old
maid sure" Thus spoke young lady Sat-
urday, who has first grade certificate, and
has been waiting for a position in the pub
lie schools for many years. Once in a
while there is a wedding here, but the
match is invariably made outside of the
school department Whether it is that the
school-teacher has no time " to spark" or
whether the young men are afraid of them,
the fact still remains, they never marry
Sensible girls, remarked venerable gen
tleman, who overheard such remark; "if
they do marry what do they get?" There
are two sides 10 every trade and the girl that
picks up with our common masher" gen.
orally gets left" Woodland does not
seem particularly happy upon this score,
and evidently is looking for some relief
from the incoming immigration. The
Democrat of the Sth says:
1t is evident that some steps must be
taken to marry off some of the eligible
young ladies of Woodland. There are many
of the proper age, many more that soon
will be, and not few that are verging on
the stage of old maids Of course there
are great many eligible young men, but
they do not seem DESTROYS of taking the re-
sponsibility of meeting the expense of the
modern belle. They say it is too expensive
luxury. The only hope seems to lie in
the organization of a society for the i'm
portation OF rich bachelors"
